What To Do About Missing Teeth
As kids, we lose our deciduous teeth as our smile develops. However, in adulthood, losing teeth is caused by oral health issues. Periodontal disease leads to major tooth loss. Since losing teeth at adulthood isn’t natural, this means issues with smile stability. You could have difficulties consuming solid foods. Problems articulating clearly may develop. Finally, you could risk negative changes to your smile, or even smile’s stability. You need an excellent MetLife dentist in Bolinas, CA who can provide prosthetic dentistry. Fortunately, Doctors Network can help you on the road to a full smile.
First, we will connect you to a friendly dentist in your area. Once we do, your new dentist can evaluate your smile to assess your missing teeth. For less severe cases, a dental bridge could be placed, addressing one to three missing teeth in a row. For several gaps, partial dentures could offer a solution and rebuild your smile. Finally, a complete set of dentures could be crafted and secured. While most complete dentures and partial dentures are removable, they could be supported with long-lasting dental implants. Dental implants act as natural teeth, and prevent negative changes to your maxilla and mandible and facial structure following tooth loss.
If you live in the Bolinas area and have lost your natural teeth, let us know. We can help you get started on receiving the tooth replacement you need. The smile of your dreams is possible, even if you’ve lost all of your teeth, and even if many years have gone by since that happened!
